The investigation by a law firm concerns whether certain officers and directors of International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. breached their fiduciary duties owed to NYSE: IFF investors in connection with the proposed acquisition.

On December 15, 2019, International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (NYSE: IFF) (Euronext Paris: IFF) (TASE: IFF) and DuPont (NYSE: DD) announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement for the merger of International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. and DuPont's Nutrition & Biosciences (N&B) business in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction.
